In the movie The Kite Runner, there is a scene where adulterers are stoned to death by the Taliban during half-time of a soccer match in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, in real-life Uganda, homosexuality is a capitol offense.

In January 2009, president-elect Barack Obama chose homophobic pastor Rick Warren to give the invocation at his inauguration. In 2013, the acclaimed documentary God Loves Uganda — which depicts the role of American conservative evangelicals (Warren’s proteges) in generating vicious anti-gay campaigns there — premiered in New York.

On Friday, U.S. Ambassador to the UN — Nikki Haley — voted against a resolution condemning the death penalty for LGBTQ people.

Now that the battles over oil export at March Point, Washington State, have begun between the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians and oil refineries owned by Shell and Tesoro, 350 has taken on the role of agent provocateur. The fact that Warren Buffett—owner of BNSF Railway, and partner in oil export with the refineries—is also a major funder of 350 via TIDES Foundation, has been actively covered up by both mainstream and alternative media.

Through its Break Free stealth campaign, 350 is now luring environmental activists into unlawful acts, that are likely to create a public backlash against environmentalists and the Indian tribes. The publicly stated intent of Break Free to close down refineries altogether threatens the livelihood of refinery workers, and threatens to disrupt all transportation in Washington State.

This escalation of hostilities–that alienates the public–is bound to attract Tea Party and violent white supremacist attention, and indeed, Citizens Equal Rights Alliance (CERA)—the “Ku Klux Klan of Indian Country”—has already been involved in inciting the anti-Indian movement in Washington State over fossil fuel export. Anti-Indian, Tea Party-led PACs, in 2013, received $149,000 from a coal export consortium—that included BNSF—over the battle at Cherry Point.

What we see with the New Economy–promoted by Bill Gates and Bill McKibben (350) at COP21–is essentially a Wise Use takeover of UN policy by transnational corporations. These corporations (including Gates) are invested in mega-mines for ‘clean energy’ and mega-dams for ‘sustainable capitalism’ to provide electricity for processing the minerals from mining and the crops from mega-plantations that grow industrial scale GMO products.

A key feature of the New Economy is developing nuclear power, and Gates has made this and GMOs a major part of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The UN, Wall Street, and NGOs like 350 are working in tandem to promote the New Economy through campaigns like Clean Energy, Divestment, and Break Free–all funded by Wall Street.

Victoria Tauli-Corpuz, UN Special Rapporteur on the rights of Indigenous Peoples, has been corrupted by her affiliation with the Ford Foundation. She consequently supports Wall Street carbon market schemes like REDD, that displace Indigenous peoples worldwide.

44 murders of Indigenous activists in Honduras since 2010 prompted her to issue a warning about state-sponsored ethnic cleansing to facilitate free market (sweatshop state) development, but she failed to mention the US role in these atrocities.

Her partnership with the most powerful corporations on the planet creates a serious conflict of interest. Her embrace of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, that promote nuclear power and privatization of Indigenous resources, makes Corpuz a hypocrite of the highest order.

As noted by Dr. Rudolph C. Ryser of the Center for World Indigenous Studies, 1.3 billion human beings have no representation at the United Nations. Collectively, these Indigenous peoples are known as the Fourth World, representing more than 5,000 Indigenous nations worldwide.

As a result of UN General Assembly commitments made between 2007 and 2014, these Fourth World nations now have the right under international law to have a voice at the UN. How that will be implemented is the topic Dr. Ryser presents in his briefing on CWIS recommendations calling for the creation of mechanisms to form an Observer Indigenous Nations Council and an Observer Indigenous Nations Assembly in the UN.

Given that many conflicts in the world today are between UN member states and Fourth World nations, implementing these mechanisms to democratize the UN and to provide the diplomatic infrastructure for conflict resolution is a step in the right direction. Overcoming the objections of market-oriented states is, as always, the challenge.

The ‘New Economy’ unveiled by the global financial elite at COP21 has two main components: 1. ‘clean energy’, and 2. ‘sustainable capitalism’. These, in turn, comprise two of the elements of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for the 21st Century–a partnership project between Wall Street, the UN and international NGOs, i.e. Avaaz, Ceres, Purpose and 350.

The primary promoters of the ‘New Economy’, ‘clean energy’ and ‘sustainable capitalism’–that form the core of the UN SDGs–are Bill Gates, Jeremy Heimans (Avaaz & Purpose) and Bill McKibben (350). Economic development under the SDGs relies on financial investment from the World Bank, and compliance enforcement from the International Monetary Fund (IMF)–in partnership with Wall Street and regional investment banks.

The results of this ‘sustainable capitalism’ can already be seen in the form of mega-dams, mega-plantations, and mega-mining projects in South America, Africa and Asia. This industrial development–while profitable to the investors–has unfortunately resulted in major deforestation, toxic pollution of fresh water, and ethnic cleansing of Indigenous peoples who formerly called these territories home.

Adjacent to the mega-dams, mega-plantations, and mega-mines of the ‘New Economy’ are makeshift camps for the industrial laborers, as well as rural shanty towns for displaced farmers and fishermen. The Indigenous peoples–those that aren’t murdered by corporate security personnel working in tandem with the police and military–are frequently relocated to urban slums far away, where many die a slow death of poverty and substance abuse.

The mega-dams provide electricity for industry, including the processing of minerals from the mega-mines, as well as the GMO soy and palm oil produced on the mega-plantations. The ‘clean energy’ minerals include gold, copper, and lithium, which are used in consumer electronics, solar panels, wind mills, and batteries for electric vehicles. They also include coal, oil, and uranium that is used to fuel the electrical grids in countries such as France, Japan and the UK.

In countries like Australia, Canada and the US, the development of gold, coal, oil and uranium mining on the lands of Indigenous peoples caused significant displacement, pollution, genocide and disease throughout the 19th and 20th Centuries, and is now the reason for uprisings, terrorism and wars in places like Mali, the Philippines, West Papua, the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi. In order to destroy Indigenous opposition to this displacement and dispossession by multinational corporations, the UN Security Council — led by the US — has supported NATO invasions in places such as Libya, as well as an increased presence by AFRICOM–the US military forces in Africa.

The ‘clean energy’ plan of the UN, Wall Street and NGOs–that championed the financial elite at COP21–relies on two primary projects: 1. a global nuclear power renaissance, and 2. privatization of Indigenous and public resources worldwide. If the UN SDGs already comprising ‘sustainable capitalism’ are the ‘New Economy’, how does that differ from the old one?

There are a number of threats to the future of humankind. The big bugaboo climate change doesn’t even make my top five. If I had to rank them, I’d say these would be it:

Advertising

Corruption

Privatization

Plague

Religion

Climate changed can’t be stopped. All we can do is adapt to new and changing circumstances.

Corruption in government institutions and economic markets that determine climate change initiatives, however, pretty much guarantees that public policies and plans will produce profitable but not effective adaptation. An example of this is the Breakthrough Energy Coalition plan to reduce fossil fuel burning by building more nuclear power plants, a plan supported by the United Nations and promoted by Bill Gates.

Another global initiative promoted by Gates and supported by the UN is the Millenium Development Goals (MDGs), now rebranded as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), that plan to use the power of UN agencies like the World Bank and International Monetary Fund to convert the world’s remaining forests to plantations for growing such food products as GMO soybeans and palm oil. A key part of the SDGs, which is well underway, is building mega-dams in the Amazon River Basin and elsewhere to generate electrical power for the industrial development that is currently displacing Indigenous peoples and annihilating biodiversity.

Privatization of all things public – land, water, nature, government – is the ultimate sustainable development goal. These fall under the much-hyped ‘New Economy’ that Gates and the UN rolled out at COP 21 in Paris. Major promoters of the New Economy include Naomi Klein and Bill McKibben, public relations puppets funded by fossil fuel magnates Warren Buffett and the Rockefeller Brothers to lead divestment campaigns that are working to privatize all aspects of ownership of the fossil fuel industry, including control of fossil fuel reserves on public lands.

Plague that results from the deforestation of Africa, Asia, and South America have already become a concern to the World Health Organization, and epidemics are forecast to increase exponentially as poverty resulting from ethnic cleansing of Indigenous peoples and the privatization of public wealth skyrockets, creating mega-slums in which public health programs are replaced by black market pharmaceuticals that are routinely misused, creating a globalized human petri dish for untreatable diseases, such as the ‘Nightmare Bacteria’ that forced the Center for Disease Control to quarantine an entire floor of a public hospital in Maryland—after three patients and a nurse succumbed.

Advertising – in the form of privatized mass communication and education – now dominates public opinion, to the point that controlling consciousness on a global scale is a prescribed art that integrates government propaganda with the news and social media, creating what has been described as a “discursive monoculture”. No matter what vital issue, crisis, or concern arises, public discussion is now choreographed by public relations firms, i.e. Purpose, that work in tandem with NGOs, e.g. Avaaz, and coordinate with government agencies.

Private equity media — that now controls all broadcast, print, and digital news in the United States – has created a fixed mentality behind the ‘clean energy’ chimera, in which all public control of climate responses using public monies will be determined by elite private interests, i.e. Wall Street. Architects of the final solution, e.g. MDGs/SDGs, by pimping poverty and all other social ills that befall humankind, promote the false hope of privatization and the termination of collective ownership in exchange for totalitarian corporate control of the planet.

Global civil society – thanks to Wall Street controlled institutions, markets, and NGOs – is now “paralyzed in a collective hypnosis” that rejects universal social interests and “systematically favours corporate interests”. The art of social engineering in which Avaaz works with elites such as Rockefeller, Gates and Soros in shaping global society, by building upon strategic psychological marketing, relies on the non-profit industrial complex, i.e. 350.org, as the “foundation of imperial domination”.

The Avaaz ‘climate criminals’ profiled in the WANTED posters at Wrong Kind of Green aren’t well-known outside the halls of power at the UN and the non-profit industrial complex, but they are a vital part of the inner circle of NGOs and PR firms behind the social engineering used to drum up support for Wall Street’s ‘clean energy’ scheme, the ‘New Economy’ and privatization of the planet.
